"US culture and taste works globally. You may not like that, but that's how it works. UK tastes don't always work. The world is dominated by the big US players and there's an inherent danger there for the UK development community," offered Brennan.

 That'll be why the 360 is selling so well in Japan then?

 

Idiot. 

I think you missed his point ...

Canadian/British humor has a lot of similarities, and (being a Canadian) I tend to find sarcastic-dry humor and satire to be far funnier than the crass potty-humor that Americans generally generate. The American comedies generally sell well in every country around the world whereas Canadian/British comedies do adequately in local theaters (and in countries with similar tastes) and fail to make a big impact elsewhere ...

Regardless of whether you like Grand-Theft Auto or Halo you have to admit that these games are highly successful on a wordwide scale; most games made in the UK will not be able to achieve these levels of success.
